Wiring Diagram.

External Since: Dec 22, 2004 Posts: 84

Can anyone help me out with a wiring diagram for an XJ600 non Diversion? My
brother unfortunately has my Haynes BOL at the moment and I won't see him
for a while. A scanned one would be good. If anyone can help please e-mail
to g dot tait at ayrcoll dot ac dot uk. TIA.

Also, what's the best way to get the spade connector out of a plastic block
connector? I've done it before but it was years ago. I need to rewire bits
of my bike but don't want to lose the block connectors. Anyone help?

Usually there's a locking tab on the back of the actual connector that
snaps into place in a recess in the plastic block. I've found
the best way is to a) identifiy which side the tab is on (typically
the *opposite* side from the formed crimp-overs on the connector) and
b) insert a small, thin screwdriver in from the front to depress the
tab while you extract the connector out the back of the block.

What I cannot seem to find, is replacment crimp connectors to replace
the ones that exist in various BMW terminal blocks. The typical
failure mode is the wire breaks off just below the crimp joint.
But I need to find the ones that snap in, with the tab on the backside.
Radio shack is hopeless now apparently, they don't stock anything.
The wiring department at both local car parts stores had ones that
were 'close' but still no good.
